Identity-based encryption (IBE) is a very useful tool in cryptography. It has many potential applications. However, existing IBE schemes are signicantly slower than regular public key cryptosystems; thus, they may not be able to meet the need of some applications in practice. In this paper, we propose a simple IBE scheme, using a technique of combined public keys. Our IBE scheme is very fast, having time costs close to those of a regular public key cryptosystem, the ElGamal cryptosystem. We show that our IBE scheme is semantically secure under the Decisional Diffie-Hellman (DDH) Assumption. In addition, we give an identity-based signature scheme using the same technique.
